Except as otherwise provided by law, an adopted person has all the same rights, including
inheritance rights, that a child born to the adoptive parents would have. An adoptee
also retains the right to inherit from the adoptee's biological parents if the adoption
decree so provides, as specified in section 2-109, subsection (1). [1995, c. 694, Pt. C, §7 (NEW); 1995, c. 694, Pt. E, §2 (AFF).]
